Japan confronting dual attacks of the earth shattered with water gushing together

[abhishreshthaa]

Tracing back the history of earthquakes in japan November 29, 684 which was recorded as 8.4 magnitude the earthquake that took place on March 11, 2011 of 8.9 magnitude is the most expensive and massive for a country like Japan.

At 2.46 pm Japan time, an earthquake measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale struck in mid-ocean at a depth of 24.4 km, 130 km (80 miles from the coastal city of Honshu and 373 km (231 miles) from Tokyo.

The quake, which was followed 30 minutes later by an aftershock registering above 7, triggered 13 meter high waves that struck the coast off Honshu, washing away cars and people and destroying buildings.

Hence as precaution all power is down in the affected region, and all trains and buses have been stopped in Tokyo. Narita International airport has also been shut down for inspection of runways and other facilities along with the country's nuclear plants.

The news is not done ,Tsunami Alert is declared for regions like New Zealand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii, and others

Well when Japan evaluates the damages and losses it incurred during this natural disaster its gonna be in crores and to overcome that amount it has to take some multi faceted steps major priority being to overcome economic losses. but the point of incidence here will Japan make it on its own or what measures will it take to have control over self

From years i have observed Japan to be a fighter country with brave people residing in it..Then it maybe Hiroshima and Nagaski on 6th August or the earthquakes that they have faced. It has always emerged more mightier and stronger then ever before..

Well i truly sympathize with their loss this time but with its emerging economy i am sure it will come out of this attack of earth and water which has caused so much destruction very soon and will prove its worth once again

the disaster in Japan made my memories of Tusanami that had occurred in India months back......the moments are still fresh ..trying to imagine the crises people are facing there......also perceiving what will the govt do to help their citizens........

Although so much disaster happened across all the cities of Japan, one thing which is quite noticeable is that, even after a high scale disaster of 8.9 rictor scale, none of the building was thrashed up by the quake. The buildings were just shivering and none was totally destructed.
Because the Japanese islands are of volcanic origin, structures of wooden timber have traditionally been the basis for architecture; there is little stone for building or carving in Japan. The architecture of wood was fully developed during the fifth century. Styles during this time period became more intricate. Architects added decorative gables, saddle roofs, and other details to their designs.
